Councilman Najarian,
I remember your attending a meeting
in my home when Supervisor Mike Antonovich was the guest speaker. You were running for Community College Board,
I believe. We gave you a time to speak
and I spoke briefly with you and I was encouraged to support you.
A lot has happened since that time and you
are now a City Councilman and former Mayor. A lot has happened with my opinion of your
politics since then, too.
I was absolutely shocked at seeing you,
after your attempt at a point of order in the last CC meeting, rudely leaving
along with Councilman Drayman following suit.
Evidently your skin is very thin as I do
not believe that anything Mr. Mohill said was racially harmful. He said the obvious, similar to saying Mexican
people cook their food with more spice than the English, or Armenians
usually cook lamb -- he was not out of line. Evidently, you do not like Mr. Mohill nor, I
believe, any of the "gadflies" who speak out against the city in
anyway that would inspire the public to, also, think or speak out against
many of the actions of the Council.
I am so totally disappointed in your
childish response -- the feigned outrage at Mr. Mohill's comments. Seemed you were looking for a way to stop him
from speaking his views. The politically
correct way of speaking is, now, so extreme and that is only what is allowed --
sure would like a list of exactly what speech is permitted in "your"
politically correct world because I haven't been properly educated in the dos
and don'ts of the "new left".
I am a republican and I didn't vote for
you this last election, regardless of the encouragement and support of a
Glendale republican organization who's president is your brother, because
of what I thought were your political views and, perhaps, your sometimes
ethnically inspired viewpoint on all things Glendale.
